Dorothy Leichty LETTERMEN LETTERWOMEN The Lettermen’s Club was made up of twen- ty-eight members this year, with Richard Hicks holding the office of president and Coach War- ren Bieber as the adviser of the club. The boys witnessed a professional ice hockey game between Seattle Seahawks and the Spo- kane Clippers, through the courtesy of the head of the Seattle Seahawks. They also followed the annual custom of joining the Lettergirls in pre- senting a dance, which had the theme of con- struction this year, since construction on the new high school building was just beginning. The award for being the most inspirational player on the basketball squad went to Howard Clark this year, and the award for being the most inspirational player on the football squad went to Bob Roe. The boys will have their names engraved on the gold plaque which hangs in the office. This is the second year that the school has had this plaque. Nine members of the basketball squad earned their letters this year, and twenty-two members of the football squad earned letters. The members of the club who are not seniors are looking forward to bigger and better ac- tivities next year. The Letterwomen had a record attendance this year, since their number of members was approximately twenty-five. As far as anyone knows this number has never been exceeded in tin history of the high school. The five new members who were initiated during the first part of the year include Lilly Torkelson, Bar- bara Siegrist, Ryoko Mafune, Agnes Anderson, and Eleanore Thompson. Throughout the year the girls have had their meeting night and their play night once a month. On November 19, the girls held a skat- ing party, and during the latter part of the year play days for the fifth, sixth, and seventh grade pupils from all the surrounding grade schools were sponsored by the Letterwomen. The Lettergirls and the Lettermen collab- orated to present a dance on September 30. This annual affair had as the theme “Under Con- struction,’’ since the construction work on the new7 building had just begun. Miss Fae Brechner is the adviser of the group: Helen Weigel is president; Jennie Kor- shaven, vice-president; and Shirley Echel- barger held the office of secretary and treasurer. 24

Only after outstanding work on the annual or Wireless is a student eligible to membership in ibis national organization. Quill and Scroll differs from most organiza- tions in Edmonds high school in that it has sev- eral initiations a year. The first of these for this year was in the fall, when seven were intro- duced into the society. This brought the mem- bership to sixteen. The second initiation, in March, was an outdoor affair. The progressive dinner in February was one of the main mid-winter activities. The meal was divided into four courses, each course being served in a different home. Games were played afterwards. In March a joint meeting with the Queen Anne high school Quill and Scroll was held. Miss Dorothy Allison is the adviser of the group. Its officers were Marian Carlson, presi- dent; Katherine Johnston, vice-president; and Carol Bueklin, secretary. The Wireless, the Edmonds high school weekly paper, has had as its editors, Allen Meyer for the first semester, and Shelleah Williams for the second semester. The staff is made up of journalism II students who must have had a B average in their first semester journalism. Miss Dorothy Allison is the super- visor. First semester staff members were Betty Leader, features; George Luschen, boys’ sports; Jean Stewart, girls’ sports; Morgan Bartlett, office news; Evelyn Wellwood, stu- dent activities; Betty Morris, music and classes; Evelyn Walker, copy reader. Those for the second semester were Bob Roe and Fred Stadler. who took charge of the boys' sports; Barbara Siegrist. writing girls’ sports; Charlotte Anderson, Florence Beam, Scott Cady, Maxine Cogswell, and Ruth Lundholm as news writers; and Lois Smith and Norma Jean Wray as feature writers. 23

ART CLUB The Art Club, which was made up of nine members this year, put out some commendable work. The group made posters and did all the advertising necessary for such productions as the Senior Play, Junior Play, Senior Dance, and the Girls’ Club activities. Through the initiative of Katherine John- stone and Mr. S. C. Caudill, business manager, the Art Club was organized last year, and since its organization the club has been almost indis- pensable to the student body because of its use- ful work. In order to become a member of the Art Club, a person must make a poster which has written on it, “The Edmonds Art Club Meets 8th Period,” and then have the work approved by the art instructor. This is the only requirement necessary to become a member of the Edmonds high school Art Club. The number of members in the club this year exceeds that of last year by two members, how- ever, many of the members are seniors who will be graduated this year. The members who are not seniors and students who will join next year are expected to keep up the good work the club has been doing during its two years of exist- ence. RADIO CLUB Ihe Radio Club was very much handicapped this year, since the radio room, where they kept all the equipment and held their meetings, had to be torn down, in order to begin construction work on the new high school building. This made it necessary to move radio equipment to the home of George Blough, who acts as tru tee for the club. Since they could not hold regular meetings very conveniently in members’ homes, the club has been rather inactive during the year. How- ever, at the beginning of the year when they were “in action,” so to speak, they held meet- ings once or twice a week and made a thorough study of the theory of radio. At the beginning of the year the club was made up of approximately ten members, and according to Mr. D. A. Jacobson, science teacher and adviser of the club, they will re- sume their regular duties as usual next fall. Only a few of the members of the club are seniors who will be graduated this year.
